How to sleep with eyelash extensions
It's done! You have become the owner of luxurious artificial eyelashes, and even learned how to clean them properly. But there is another big test ahead! Let's talk today about how to sleep with eyelash extensions.
Eyelash care begins with getting ready for bed. To get started, remove makeup with an oil-free product, and why clean your eyelashes with a special foam. As a last resort, you can use baby shampoo diluted in water to gently clean your lashes.
After brushing, pat your face and around your eyelids dry, but don't rub your eyes. If possible, avoid going to bed with wet lashes, let them dry naturally. Next, gently brush your lashes with a clean mascara brush.
Now you are ready for bed. The best sleeping position with eyelash extensions is on your back . However, many of us are more comfortable resting on our side. If this is about you, then in this case, try to put your face under the edge of the pillow.
Choose the right pillow
An excellent option is to buy an orthopedic memory foam pillow. This shape not only supports your neck well and aligns your spine, but also helps keep your head from turning while you sleep. And, accordingly, protect your gorgeous eyelashes from contact with the pillow. :)
Build obstacles
If the purchase of an orthopedic pillow has not yet developed, you can use the usual ones as a barrier. Surround yourself with voluminous pillows that will prevent you from easily rolling onto your side. Your significant other may not like this idea, but remember that this is a beauty sacrifice until you get used to sleeping on your back. You can also put a pillow under your knees to help prevent lower back pain, and this will also help prevent you from turning in your sleep. :)
Stretch before bed
Sometimes at night we twist and turn if we can't find a comfortable sleeping position. To avoid this, try stretching before bed. You can even do it while lying in bed. While lying on your back, pull your left knee towards your chest while the opposite leg is relaxed and straight. Hold this for thirty seconds, and then repeat the exercise with the opposite knee. This exercise will relieve tension from the back muscles, relax them, which will give you peace of mind at night. So, thanks to the desire to carry extended eyelashes longer, you can inadvertently join the sport. :)
Purchase a silk pillowcase
Silk is a tolerant material for both our skin and eyelashes. If the extensions are rubbed against the silk pad, they are more smoothly in contact with it, and do not get tangled or twisted, as is the case with friction on cotton pads. Therefore, the arithmetic is simple: less friction - longer lash life. As a bonus, I will tell you that silk will also be good for the skin of the face, as it prevents the appearance of wrinkles.
Use a special mask
If neither orthopedic pillows nor silk pillowcases can keep you from falling face-first into bed, then a sleep mask with eyelash extensions can save the day. This mask will keep your eyelashes safe and allow you to sleep on your side with peace of mind. Unlike conventional masks, this comfortable accessory has a free space between the eyes and the mask itself, providing comfort and freedom of "twisting" on the bed.
Be healthy and beautiful! :)
